Loathe have revealed a second collaboration version of their track ‘Is It Really You?‘, with enigmatic alt-rockers Sleep Token. This stripped down version with piano accompaniment and moving vocals from Sleep Token‘s Vessel, emphasizes the nostalgic nature of the song-writing. Taken from their 2020 record I Let It In And It Took Everything, ‘Is It Really You?‘ has been identified as one of the pivotal moments in Loathe‘s sonic evolution.
Loathe stated, “We’ve all been big fans of Sleep Token for a while now so when the track landed in our inbox it blew us away. Alongside the Teenage Wrist rendition, having the opportunity to hear our song through the artists own lens but also to release these alternate versions to the public to ingest and enjoy is a humbling experience.”.
Sleep Token have shared their latest single, ‘Fall For Me’.
This is the latest release from their upcoming second record, ‘This Place Will Become Your Tomb’, set to be released on 24th September.
The band are set to tour the UK in November of this year.

It’s that time of the week again! It’s time for another music video roundup! I do have to say another apology, this is coming a few hours late, there have been some technical difficulties on the site today and I’ve bee working to resolve them. But with that out of the way now, and first up is Sweedish alt-rock group Normandie. Their music video for ‘Enough’ is taken from their upcoming record, ‘White Flag, which is set to be released October 26th.
With something just released as well, there are the lads in IDKHOW. They’ve released their EP which is titled as ‘1981 Extended Play’ which is being released on November 9th via Fearless Records. What’s more is that there is a new music video called ‘Do It All The Time’.
Moving in a heavier direction, we go to Bury Tomorrow who have revealed their video for ‘More Than Mortal, the third single from their recently released record, ‘Black Flame’.
With the deluxe re-release of ‘The Amulet’ incoming, Pennsylvania’s Circa Survive have shared some interesting visuals for a new addition to the track listing.
With Stand Atlantic’s upcoming, Skinny Dipping’ record just less than half a month away, they have released another fantastic track to their catalogue of tracks. Here’s ‘Lost My Cool’.
And now we turn to a more recent release. Last week, You Me At Six kicked off their release day in style because in addition to ‘VI’, they also released a video for ‘Back Again’, which also features a cameo from Josh Franceschi’s dog, Harley.
Since, their newest record, ‘Technology’ dropped earlier this year, Don Broco just haven’t seemed to stop with tours of the UK, USA already done, they’ve still got quite a way to go until their UK tour. But can we get an insight to it? The short answer, yes. Check out their video for ‘The Blues’ below.
More touring bands releasing videos, but one that stood out for me, was Knocked Loose’s newest video for ‘The Rain’ which features Dallas Garris. The band are currently touring the US with Beartooth but what makes this video so special? The beautiful direction it takes.
Ahead of this bands show, which sold out in just thirty seconds for London’s St. Pancras Old Church, they have released this video for ‘The Way That You Were’. It sees Sleep Token’s frontman singing some seats behind a woman who is unaware of their presence.
And lastly…. we have Blessthefall. They have released their latest single, ‘Wishful Sinking’, off their latest record, ‘Hard Feelings’. On the video, frontman Beau Bokan has said: it is a particularly special song because it was the first one we wrote with our producer Tyler Smyth. For us, the song is a perfect blend of our new direction and old Blessthefall. With the music video, we wanted to incorporate some amazing visuals and keep the aesthetic of the album. I think we nailed it
And that’s it for another list of ten of the best recently released music videos. Be sure to check back next week at 4PM for another post of the latest and greatest music videos.
